According to the nonpartisan @BudgetHawks, the Biden Administration and Congressional Democrats’ reckless spending will add more than $4.8 trillion to deficits between 2021 and 2031.
This is reckless at any time, but it’s grossly irresponsible in the middle of a recession.

Our students are experiencing a mental health crisis, and Congress needs to act before the problem gets even worse.
Read my latest op-ed on the work we are doing to address this crisis via the @RiponAdvance:

Recently, we introduced the bipartisan Justice and Mental Health Collaboration Reauthorization Act to ensure law enforcement officers have the best possible tools to face these difficult situations.

Law enforcement officers are often the first to respond during a mental health crisis.
We must ensure they have the resources they need to provide appropriate, compassionate intervention to individuals struggling with mental health challenges.

Americans are skipping meals & going hungry because of high food prices.
This is a national crisis, even if those who have never had to do the math to ensure the amount in their cart doesn’t exceed the cash in their wallet refuse to admit it.

Last week I was honored to receive the @NFIB Guardian of Small Business Award.
I will continue to fight for our small businesses on Main Street so they can do what they do best: drive our economy forward.

Since President Biden took office, Democrats have added 4.8 TRILLION dollars in inflation-triggering spending to our deficit.
“Big spending Democrats” sounds about right to us.

In 1787, American leaders who believed in the fundamental rights of freedom and liberty joined together to sign our Constitution.
This document established a more perfect union and safeguards our liberties to this day.
Happy Constitution Day to all fellow Americans!

Scared @GaryGensler?
🚨SCOOP via @EleanorTerrett: The @SECGov is staffing up in anticipation of a "heavy" amount of Congressional oversight if GOP takes the House in the midterms. More now @TeamCavuto

With winter just around the corner, more than 20 million Americans are in danger of having their heat turned off.
Enough is enough, Americans cannot afford any more of Democrats’ radical energy policies.

The Administration must embrace the benefits of open, permissionless & private digital assets, rather than place prominence on central bank digital currencies, the benefits of which remain confounding. (2/2)

In the wrong hands, retail central bank digital currencies can be twisted into a surveillance tool. (1/2)

This disastrous policy threatens MN agriculture, miners, and more who depend on the land for their livelihoods.
Thank you to @RepPeteStauber for leading this important effort.

The Biden Administration continues to pursue their radical 30x30 land grab yet refuses to provide answers or clarity about “reclaiming” 30% of all lands and water, including privately owned land, by 2030.

Unfortunately, agriculture faces an aging workforce coupled with endemic labor shortages.
I introduced the bipartisan ASPIRE Act, to ensure the next generation of agriculture workers are getting the hands-on experience they need to be successful.

Happy National Teach Ag Day!
We need to invest in the next generation of agriculture workers, because our food security depends on the hard-working men and women of our ag community.

Working Americans are skipping meals and delaying retirement because of record-high inflation.
This is unconscionable.
The endless print-and-spend mentality must end.
